Tenth Birthday Party of the Year

This is Bri's friend Jacob. He turned 6 on Sept 9 and his party was the afternoon of Sept 11. I had been watching so much coverage of 9/11 - going to his party that afternoon was a really nice diversion. Jacob is the son of one of my closest friends. I have known Miranda for around 10 years now and we met when we both worked at Coldwell Banker. I was at Miranda's baby shower and now her sweet boy is 6 years old. I can't believe we both have kids in kindergarten. How does time fly by so quickly?

Here is my gal ready for a party...

Jacob has a sweet new swingset in his backyard...

The kids got to play some baseball. Bri had never played before...


But look at that swing...

Check this video out. My gal never hit a ball with a bat before. That afternoon, she hit almost every ball thrown at her. And she hit left handed - not sure why. Doug says if she is a switch hitter, he is signing her up for softball...


Mmmm, cake and ice cream. Perfection...


There was also a pinata to hit at the end of the party. Bri had a total blast!

10th birthday party? WOW!! Sam, may have been to about that before he hit 3 - being I belonged to a Mom's club, but we're lucky if we do one a year now...they stop getting parties after a while and just do vacation type things. I myself couldn't afford to go to 10 these days!!...lol. Last party Sam then was at 8 - we had the party and took him on the Nick cruise where he met Tom Kenny (Spongebob) himself and two kids from iCarly - Sam and Freddy best birthday ever! For this 10th, no party but a trip to NYC and the Poconos.
